Loved staying here so much that I extended my stay. I was there with 4 teenagers who also thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Staff was amazing. Food really good. The tour through the cat sanctuary was fabulous. our guides had an amazing sense of humour and knowledge. We also did the safari drive and our guide was really good! The lodge also organised our elephant interaction. everything was great and seamless!

We visited in late November and enjoyed excellent hospitality from all the staff. The grounds are lovely and include several short trails where you can see several species of wildlife (Zebra, Antelope and Tortoise) in our case. The accommodation is great too and includes a nice restaurant and pool area. The highlight other than the optional Cat tour was the staff singing for the guests during dining. Beautiful.

Our stay at Emdenoni Lodge was so peaceful and pleasant...The lodge is safe, quiet, relaxing and ressourcing. The food is delicious and there is a real effort, each evening, to make balanced meals with different ingredients, tastes and colours. The staff is kind and caring. The owners are so friendly and caring! I loved waking up to two zebras eating peacefully in front of our cottage, and walk around the property safely!

We stayed in the self catering unit, that had all the creature comforts! Perfect for a small family and perfect to socialize. The location was safe and a few meters away from their Cat Project where you get to see incredible animals like cheetahs. The staff were great and the facilities was top notch ( pool, restaurant, games, hikes). It's my 2nd visit and I'll be back.

The room was large but quite uncomfortable with old cheap furniture - a bit of decoration would work wonders. Spacious bathroom without the chance to place your toiletries… a bit pricey for what you get.Very helpful staff und flexible cook for dietary requirements.

The cat encounter is absolutely outstanding. Wildcat, Caracal, Serval and Cheetah. The guides also take great pictures of you with Cheetah. You get to go into meet with Wildcat, Serval and one of the Cheetahs. Great experience. We had great time there. Must do if visiting this area.
